ntfscluster(8)


NAME

   ntfscluster - identify files in a specified region of an NTFS volume.

SYNOPSIS

   ntfscluster [options] device

DESCRIPTION

   ntfscluster has three modes of operation: info, sector and cluster.

   Info
   The  default  mode, info is currently not implemented.  It will display
   general information about the NTFS volume when it is working.

   Sector
   The sector mode will display a list of files  that  have  data  in  the
   specified range of sectors.

   Cluster
   The  cluster  mode  will  display a list of files that have data in the
   specified range of clusters.  When the cluster size is one sector, this
   will be equivalent to the sector mode of operation.

OPTIONS

   Below is a summary of all the options that ntfscluster accepts.  Nearly
   all options have two equivalent names.  The short name is preceded by -
   and  the  long name is preceded by --.  Any single letter options, that
   don't take an argument, can be combined into  a  single  command,  e.g.
   -fv  is  equivalent to -f -v.  Long named options can be abbreviated to
   any unique prefix of their name.

   -c, --cluster RANGE
          Any files whose data is  in  this  range  of  clusters  will  be
          displayed.

   -F, --filename NAME
          Show information about this file.

   -f, --force
          This  will  override some sensible defaults, such as not working
          with a mounted volume.  Use this option with caution.

   -h, --help
          Show a list of options with a brief description of each one.

   -I, --inode NUM
          Show information about this inode.

   -i, --info
          This option is not yet implemented.

   -q, --quiet
          Reduce the amount of output to a minimum.  Naturally, it doesn't
          make sense to combine this option with

   -s, --sector RANGE
          Any  files  whose  data  is  in  this  range  of sectors will be
          displayed.

   -v, --verbose
          Increase the amount of output that ntfscluster prints.

   -V, --version
          Show the version number, copyright and license for ntfscluster.

EXAMPLES

   Get some information about the volume /dev/hda1.

          ntfscluster /dev/hda1

   Look for files in the first 500 clusters of /dev/hda1.

          ntfscluster -c 0-500 /dev/hda1

BUGS

   The info mode isn't implemented yet.  ntfscluster is quite limited, but
   it  has  no  known  bugs.   If  you  find  a  bug  please send an email
   describing the problem to the development team:
   ntfs-3g-devel@lists.sf.net
